Vanguard is lost at sea, but we can’t just watch this ship go down because too many of us are on it. Join a growing network that includes Vanguard employees and customers who are pushing the quiet giant to stop investing in climate chaos.
In July, Tim Buckley was replaced as Vanguard CEO by former BlackRock executive Salim Ramji. This leadership transition offers a chance for the asset manager to correct its course, and finally take seriously the risk that climate change poses to its customers’ investments, the global economy, and the future of life on Earth. We need your help to write to the members of Vanguard’s board and ask them to push their new CEO to prioritize climate action when he takes up his new post.

As of the end of December 2023, Vanguard has over $16.7B in share holdings and almost $3B in bond holdings in the project’s owner companies. Join us in taking action to stop Vanguard's investments funding extractive, harmful projects such as this.
